SBRFP rectifiers cut losses in automotive systems
Diodes’ automotive Field-Plated Super Barrier Rectifiers (SBRFP) provide low forward voltage and low reverse leakage current. The 2-A SBRFP2M60P1Q and SBRFP2M60SAFQ, 3-A SBRFP3M60SAFQ, and 8-A SBRFP8A60P5Q are drop-in replacements for comparable Schottky and PN junction diodes. Based on a MOS manufacturing process, Diodes’ SBRFP technology overcomes the limitations of conventional Schottky and PN junction technologies.
The SBRFP8A60P5Q has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 0.55 V at 8 A, helping reduce conduction losses in high-current applications. The SBRFP2M60P1Q and SBRFP3M60SAFQ offer low reverse leakage currents (IR), with maximum currents of 12 µA and 7 µA, respectively, at 25°C. These characteristics can contribute to improved efficiency and reduced thermal stress under high-temperature operating conditions.
Avalanche energy ratings reach up to 145 mJ, depending on the device, providing additional capability for handling surge events, load dumps, and other transient conditions in automotive electrical systems. The devices operate across a -55°C to +175°C junction temperature range for demanding automotive applications.
Prices for the SBRFP family range from $0.08 to $0.26 each in 1000-piece quantities.
